Are sell-by dates finally past their sell-by date? Last year, reporter Jonathan Maitland diced with dysentery when he deliberately ate food whose shelf life had well and truly expired. Mouldy bread, whiffy mince... Maitland came to no harm and has lived to tell the tale. For his next trick he wants to see if he can create a banquet for 5,000 people using only food scavenged from supermarket bins. We throw away obscene amounts of perfectly good food in this country because of our obsession about sell-by dates but perhaps our food safety paranoia has gone too far... Chef Antony Worrall Thompson helps stir the debate by cooking up a freegan feast. Binoffee pie anyone?
